What do you need to learn in UI design?
The training courses of UI design are mainly divided into design concept training and software operation training. The specific courses are as follows:

1. Visual design basis: Through the study of Illustrator software graphic application system, students can master the visual design basis of graphics.

2. Visual application technology of light and shadow structure: Through the study of Illustrator software light and shadow structure system, students can master the expression techniques of light and shadow structure of objects.

3.UI design: Through the study of Illustrator and Photoshop software graphic image system, students can master the methods of high-quality UI graphic design.

4. Ultra-realistic application and performance: through the ultra-precision performance system of Illustrator software, the ultra-realistic production skills are completed.

5. Composition and visual language: Learning the visual language of composition enables students to master the design and application of visual expression technology.

6. Visual art expression and application: Through the combined application of color art and visual expression, students' design ability can meet the requirements of commercial level.

7.Flash platform application: Through the study of Flash software system, students can master the dynamic application foundation of Flash.

8. Hypermedia integrated application technology: Through advanced application learning of Flash software, students can master dynamic structure expression language technology.

9. Application technology of interactive platform: Through the study of Flash ActionScript 3 software program system, students can master the performance of advanced interactive structure.

If you can fully master this knowledge, you will become an excellent UI designer and achieve stable and high-paying employment. As I said before, UI designers are now highly valued, so they are more promising than ordinary designers and have a broader future development prospect.

The software is as follows:

1.PSCC20 17

PS is Photoshop.

More than 90% UI designers know PS, which is very good at image processing and color matching, as well as layer styles and Boolean operations. But there are also disadvantages, that is, you can't draw vector graphics and the typesetting is not very good. There are also several floors. It is not very convenient to manage. The main purpose of UI design is to draw interfaces and icons.

2.AICC20 17

Ai quanming illustrator

A vector drawing software, very good at making UI icons. Especially drawing plane icons. The effect is very good. There is also a vector function, which is used to draw graphs that can be enlarged and reduced. The disadvantage is that you can't mix colors. It is not easy to make quasi-materialized icons.

3.AECC20 17

Full name of AE after effect

It is mainly used to do video special effects in the later stage of film and television, but in the case of UI, it is used to do some interactive effects of UI. Dynamic effect is the most efficient software, but AE can't be used as an interface. This AE is not good at it.

The full name of 4.4. ARP is Axure RP Pro.

The master is used to make prototype drawings, and interactive prototype design is a relatively hot software.

Finally, add that software is just a tool. Don't think that you understand the design just because you understand the software. Don't rely too much on software. To be a qualified designer, you should learn theoretical knowledge after you know the tools.

Extended data:

UI design (or interface design) refers to the overall design of human-computer interaction, operation logic and beautiful interface of software. UI design can be divided into entity UI and virtual UI. The UI design mentioned in the Internet is virtual UI, and UI is the abbreviation of user interface.

Good UI design not only makes the software personalized and tasteful, but also makes the operation of the software comfortable, simple and free, which fully embodies the positioning and characteristics of the software.

Design content:

Accordingly, the functions of UI designers generally include three aspects:

1. Graphic design, product "shape" design of software products.

2. Interactive design, mainly lies in the design of software operation flow, tree structure and operation specification. What a software product needs to do before coding is interaction design, interaction model and interaction specification.

3. User testing/research, the so-called "testing" here, aims to test the rationality of interactive design and the aesthetics of graphic design, and mainly measures the rationality of UI design through the form of target user questionnaire. Without this test and research, the quality of UI design can only be judged by the experience of designers or the aesthetics of leaders, which will bring great risks to enterprises.
